    Ride available

    With the eldest Gelfing unable to attend <pout>, it looks as though we may have extra space in the van. Please be advised we are not sympathetic to stinky smokers, and the old clunker is not air conditioned (again with the pout), and would expect a little gas money. We're leaving Tuesday the...

    To chime in... There's an interesting paradigm shift that seems to have been re-occuring over the past few years in the gaming community as more gamers are getting married and having kids. Finally, the judging panel has started to reflect that. This year one judge is married to a staffer (who...

    Why the merger of two categories?

    I'm enjoying watching this discussion, and am glad there's some debate about whether it is reasonable to impose some sort of barrier to entry in order to whinnow the wheat from the electronic chaff, so to speak. I think one of the points that I raised earlier hasn't been addressed, though, and...

    Why the merger of two categories?

    By the way, one of the reasons we had the CD format for submissions, beyond that of creating an artificial barrier to reduce a flood flippant entries, was to ensure that the customer service experience didn't influence the evaluation of the product. For example, I was sent a free PDF link by a...

    Why the merger of two categories?

    By the way, I'm sorry if I came across as snarky in my last post. I think that if publishers want to submit podcasts, that'd be great, and they would go under the free product/webhancement category. If we got a sufficient number of professional vid or podcasts submitted then we might split...

    Why the merger of two categories?

    A few comments/responses The majority of the ENnies Awards are aimed at professional productions. The "amateur" catagories are there to acknowledge the important role fan sites and productions have in gaming- to give them a chance to shine and not get overshadowed by companies who are in the...
